Been on a big biography kick lately. Read the Napoleon bio by Andrew Roberts. Outstanding, but very dense. I recommend starting with the concise biography of napoleon by David bell to get an overview before diving into the Roberts one. You can read the latter in a day or 2. I'm currently reading the Steve Jobs biography by walter isaacson, which is both incredibly motivating and hilarious. It really makes me want to start taking some more risks on myself and going all in on what I love. Next up, I'm planning on reading the Elon biography by Walter Isaacson, but I'm also considering a few others. The Andrew Roberts biography on King George III is intriguing, because I'd lover to learn about the American revolution from a British perspective and this seems like a great way to do that. I plan on reading this eventually, but will probably read Elons first. Have you read any great biographies lately? Do you have any to recommend to me? I'd love to hear it!

One of the most irritating things about NOSTR for me is that many of the features often just don't work for me and I have no idea why or how to address it. Right now, when I try to follow new people, I literally can't click the follow button. Nothing happens when i click it. Doesn't matter how many times I try. 🤷‍♂️

The Trump/Elon conversation last night was very eye opening. Elon is clearly making a play for power, and Trump is his vehicle. He kept pushing for Trump to appoint him to a commission that would weed out government waste. He was effectively offering to become the executive of the administration, who can actually get shit done, while Trump is the guy who shakes hands and smiles for the camera. It feels like we're witnessing the beginning of the rise of Tech CEO monarchs.

This speech kinda sucks, ngl

Regardless of what you may think of Trump, it is an absolute milestone to have him speak at the Bitcoin conference today. I can't believe how far we've come. The fact that the conference is full of senators, congresspeople, presidential candidates and other powerful people is outrageously bullish. They need us more than we need them. Bitcoiners are going to become one of the most powerful political lobbies the world has ever seen.

I'm pretty confident (and bummed out!) that I lost my key for this wallet. Lesson learned. 210k sats taken off the market forever. You're welcome!

Happy 15th anniversary of this legendary tweet! Fun Fact: I bought the domain runningbitco.in a few years ago and set it up to redirect to it.

Gonna consolidate some UTXO's today

Building myself an early Christmas present.

It's so beautiful!

Leftists in Argentina are in TEARS tonight, sobbing as their 40 years of rule has come to an END

War Karen is a great nickname for Nikki Haley.

Wow!!! @Blockstream I cannot believe you just sent me 170k+ sats over the liquid network! Thank you so much!

Which client do you find yourself using the most these days? For me it's @primal, for sure.

I love how nostr makes it effectively impossible for them to totally succeed with this goal.

This looks great! The combination of Bitcoin and 3D-printed guns entering into existence at the same time is going to change everything forever.

💪💪💪💪

I'd really like to see @Robert Breedlove interview Curtis Yarvin and deep dive into the ideas of Monarchy and Bitcoin. Robert, are you familiar with his work?
